Patent EP-0378337-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04R9/04
Filed: 1990-01-08
Abstract: A stamped and formed, unitary, metal wire trap 
speaker terminal (20) used in coupling a speaker wire 
(36) extending from an audio speaker (26) to a lead 
wire (34) for an audio system of an entertainment 
appliance includes a base portion (30) and a wire trap 
receiving portion (32). The base portion (30) to which 
is coupled the speaker wire (36) has wings or arms 
(48, 50, 52, 54) that are adapted to be wrapped about 
a thin, rectangularly shaped insulator (22) that is 
affixed to a frame member (24) of the audio speaker (26). 
The wire trap receiving portion (32) extends from one 
edge of the base portion (30), at an angle of about 
150 degrees, and has a wire receiving cavity (70) so 
that a stripped end portion (42) of the lead wire (34) 
may be inserted through a wire receiving or entry port 
(72) (Fig. 2) having divergently extending wire guides 
(74, 76) to aid the assertion of the stripped end portion 
(42) of the lead wire into the wire receiving cavity 
(70). A cam contact beam (78) is formed from one of the 
walls forming the wire receiving cavity (70) and 
obliquely extends into the wire receiving cavity (70). 
 
 
When the stripped conductor portion (42) of the lead wire 
is inserted into the wire receiving cavity (70), the 
conductor is trapped or locked between the contact beam 
(78) and an opposite wall of the wire receiving cavity (70) 
resulting in the coupling of the conductor (42) of the lead 
wire (34) to the terminal (20) and thereby to the speaker 
wire (36).

Title: Method and apparatus for increasing radiant heat production of hydrocarbon fuel combustion systems
IPC: F23C99/00
Filed: 1990-02-23
Abstract: In one aspect, the apparatus includes a pair of 
spaced electrodes (96, 112) through which a hydrocarbon fuel gas is 
flowed. An electric arc is struck across the electrode gap 
to pyrolyze a portion of the hydrocarbon fuel gas, leading 
to the formation of carbonaceous heat radiative bodies 
which are entrained in the hydrocarbon fuel gas stream. In 
the presence of an oxidant gas such as air, a turbulent 
diffusion flame (36) is created having an increased luminous 
radiant heat output, an improved turn-down ratio, increased 
flame stability, and reduced nitric oxide emissions. The 
method and apparatus are particularly adapted to increasing 
the luminous radiant output of hydrocarbon fuels having a 
low carbon-to-hydrogen ratio such as natural gas. In 
another aspect, a method and apparatus are provided by 
which the accumulation of pyrolytically formed carbonaceous 
bodies (312) on an electrode during the pyrolysis of a 
hydrocarbon gas is effectively prevented by a secondary gas 
jet. In still another aspect, the present invention 
provides a method and apparatus for controlling the rate at 
which heat-radiative carbonaceous particles in a diffusion 
flame are oxidized by introducing a protective sheath of 
non-oxidant gas as a tertiary flow circumferentially around 
a stream of fuel gas having entrained heat-radiative 
carbonaceous particles. Various modification of these 
methods and apparatus are also provided.
Patent EP-0396258-A3 (EP)
IPC: B01D61/28
Filed: 1990-04-04
Abstract: Systems and methods for predetermining maximum 
pressure differentials for particular microporous 
hollow fiber membranes and essentially immiscible 
feed and extractant liquids to be employed in 
liquid-liquid extractions include a test module 
having a number of such fibers formed into a loop 
between the opposing ends thereof. A tubular sleeve 
element encompasses these opposing ends, and a 
potting compound positionally retains the opposing 
ends within the tubular sleeve. The hollow fiber 
lumens are fluid-connected to a reservoir containing 
a pressurized feed liquid, and the loops of hollow 
fiber are immersed in an essentially unpressurized 
extractant liquid. The pressure of the feed liquid 
is continually increased until there is an incipient 
presence of the feed liquid in the extractant 
liquid. The pressure of the feed liquid at that 
incipient presence may therefore be used to calculate 
a maximum pressure differential tolerated by the 
microporous hollow fibers for the feed and extractant 
liquids used. The system which detects the incipient 
presence may also be associated with full scale 
liquid-liquid extraction modules so that malfunctions 
and/or module failures may be determined.

Title: Devices featuring silicone elastomers
IPC: G02B6/42
Filed: 1990-05-09
Abstract: Devices are described in which certain crosslinked silicone polymers are 
incorporated. These polymers have various functions such as encapsulating agents, 
surface protective agents or agents to index match optical components (e.g. optical 
fiber, optical waveguide, etc.) to other optical devices or articles. The polymer is a 
vinyl-terminated dimethyldiphenylsiloxane copolymer crosslinked with tri-or 
tetrafunctional silanes in the presence of a platinum catalyst. The phenyl group 
content of the crosslinked silicone copolymer is adjusted to change the index of 
refraction of the polymer to the optimum for the particular application contemplated. 
Polymer preparation procedures are described which yield good optical quality for 
the polymer as well as optimum physical and chemical properties.

Abstract: A speech coding device capable of delivering a
speech signal of excellent sound quality at a low bit
rate is disclosed. The disclosed device is characterized
by a method of calculating lag corresponding to
pitch period and a speech signal coding method. Lag is
calculated as follows: A speech signal is divided into
frames; one frame is divided into a plurality of
subframes; for each frame, subframes in which lag of a
speech signal is expressed in the form of a differential
relative to lag of a previous subframe and
subframes in which lag is expressed in the form of an
absolute value, i.e., the lag value itself, are established;
a plurality of bit allocation patterns are
established for each frame that allocate bits for
expressing lag as an absolute value or a differential
in each of the plurality of subframes; for each bit
allocation pattern, pitch predictive distortion is
calculated for every subframe; accumulated distortion
is calculated by accumulating the pitch predictive
distortion over a predetermined plurality of subframes
in the frame; a bit allocation pattern is selected so
as to minimize the accumulated distortion. The lags in
the subframes of the selected pattern are determined as
the lags in the subframes of interest.

Filed: 1992-01-16
Abstract: A method is described for controlling the input 
current drawn by a switching power converter 
notwithstanding wide variations in load being supplied by 
the converter. The input current is controlled in 
response to a first signal. An input current control 
signal is generated based on comparing a second signal to 
a third signal. The second signal is independent of 
variations in the input current or the first signal. The 
third signal is dependent on variations in the input 
current and the first signal. The input current control 
signal is arranged to drive the value of the third signal 
towards the value of the second signal. The third signal 
is maintained and the magnitude essentially equal to the 
magnitude of the second signal.

Abstract: In CDMA communications, a base station detects
a difference between a reference phase of a spreading
code and a phase of a received signal of each terminal
station, and feeds a phase jump signal PJ-i representative
of the phase difference back to each terminal
station. After timing acquisition, the reception
operation is performed using the reference phase, and a
shift amount between the phase of a received signal and
the reference phase is fed back to each terminal station
as phase synchronization control information PC-i. Each
terminal station coarsely adjusts the phase of the
spreading code in accordance with the phase jump signal
PJ-i, and thereafter finely adjust the phase of its
transmitting signal in accordance with the phase
synchronization control information PC-i. It is
therefore possible to synchronize the phases of signals
transmitted from terminal stations and received at the
base station. Accordingly, an orthogonal code is used
for spreading on reverse links.
